“Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky,The flying cloud, the frosty light;The year is dying in the night;Ring out, wild bells, and let him die.Ring out the old, ring in the new,Ring, happy bells, across the snow:The year is going, let him go;Ring out the false, ring in the true.”
“Ring out the old, ring in the new, Ring, happy bells, across the snow: The year is going, let him go;Ring out the false, ring in the true.”
“Let the great world spin for ever downthe ringing grooves of change.”
“The telephone bell was ringing wildly, but without result, since there was no-one in the room but the corpse.”
“I cadged a complimentary green matchbook with a gold bird icon from the Bell canning jar. Later we'd use the matches to light our spliffs. My fingertips tapped the stem to the gizmo that dinged a bell. Nobody came out. Wrong signal, so I did two bell rings. No response prompted me to tap out a series of bell rings.”
“A false ring of the night bell, once answered — it can never be made right.”
“Ring the bells that still can ring Forget your perfect offering There is a crack in everything That's how the light gets in.”
